Memorial stone honors area man

A memorial stone honoring First Lieutenant
Guy L. Bonner, formerly of the Fairview area of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania,
was recently placed in Arlington National Cemetery.

The stone is located in Memorial Section 46E-8,
which is reserved for war casualties whose bodies were never recovered.

Lieutenant Bonner was a survivor of Pearl Harbor
and later transferred to the U.S. Army Air Corps. He was a B-29 aircraft
commander flying out of Tinian Island. His plane was shot down over Japan's
Inland Sea on July 28, 1945. Six of his crew were rescued but five were
never recovered.

Bonner earned his pilot's license at Chambersburg's
Sunset Airport, often flying with the late Clyde W. Meadows, a long-time
pastor of King Street United Brethren Church. Prior to his enlistment,
he was an engineer at Landis Tool Co., Waynesboro.

His widow, Lillian (Weagley) Bonner and his
son, Guy L. Jr., born after his father's death, both live in Waynesboro.
